It could be, unless the parents are notified and permission is given for the minor to reside at the person's home. If there is a problem with abuse or neglect the police should be notified. The police will inform the involved parties of the proper procedures for handling the issue. More input: * Yes, unfortunately it is. But, it is not illegal to drive her to a shelter. They can provide help, guidance, counseling for her and her parents and they will let her parents know she is okay. Shalters are safe, friendly places run by people who want to help children and teens in dangerous, desperate situations. Childcare workers are working for the kids, not the parents. These people have seen it all and they know that sometimes the child is more trustworthy than the parent. You can still be supportive and helpful but if you allow her to stay in your home without the parents permission you can be found guilty of kidnapping. Really. * In Australia this is not a crime. 16 is the age of consent here
